Definitions

  • the invention relates to a contact device for a multiconductor cable comprising a terminal support and a terminal cover of insulating material.
  • the terminal support contains recesses in which terminals are located. Terminals at the side of the terminal cover comprise bifurcated insulation piercing contacts. Insulated electrical conductors of multiconductor cable are passed through the contact cover to the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts.
  • Said contact device is known from the Dutch Patent Application 7603291, laid open to public inspection.
  • the insulated electrical conductors are passed through separate bores in the terminal cover, after which the ends are pressed between the tines of the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts, located in the terminal support.
  • the lower surface of the terminal cover comprises recesses for accommodating the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts, whereas transversely to each recess a deep groove is made for accommodating the bent end of the electrical conductor pressed between the tines of the insulation piercing contact.
  • each conductor first has to be bent rectangularly at its end to be connected, after which this bent portion is pressed between the tines of the corresponding insulation piercing contact.
  • the free end of the electrical conductor is passed through corresponding bores in the terminal cover, which cover then is slid over the core piercing contacts and lowered on the terminal support upon pulling the ends of the conductors extending out of the bores.
  • the contact device of the present invention which is characterized in that the insulated electrical conductors contacting the terminals have been bent in a U-shape over a part of their length and are supported. The base portion of the U-shaped bent conductor is pushed into the slit between the tines of the bifurcated core piercing contact in order to achieve electrical contact with the terminal.
  • a supported, U-shaped bent conductor portion provides a means of contacting the conductor with the bifurcated insulation piercing contact without passing the conductor separately through a terminal cover. This can be achieved simply by pressing the conductor down between the tines of the bifurcated insulation piercing contact through an opening or recess.
  • the U-shape offers a good strain relief, which can be improved by additional pressing means. Repair or replacement of the conductors can be done very easily since these conductors need not be passed separately through the terminal cover.
  • the cover contains recesses for accommodating and supporting the U -shaped bent conductor portions. These recesses are located such that all U-shaped bent conductor portions are positioned in parallel planes.
  • the cover also contains channels for the bifurcated core piercing contacts. These channels emerge into the recesses for the U-shaped bent conductor portions.
  • the recesses in the terminal cover for the U-shaped bent conductor portions extend from the upper surface almost to the lower surface of the terminal cover.
  • the channels for the bifurcated core piercing contacts consist of slots extending transversely to the longitudinal direction of the recesses for the U-shaped bent connector portions.
  • a bifurcated insulation piercing contact in a slot is squeezed until within the recess.
  • both sides of the bifurcated insulation piercing contact are sufficiently spaced from the walls of the recess so that there is room for pushing between the tines of this bifurcated insulation piecing contact a portion of an insulated electrical conductor which was passing lengthwise over the recess on the upper surface of the terminal cover.
  • the terminal cover Upon assembling the contact device of the present invention, first the terminal cover is lowered on the terminal support containing the inserted terminals.
  • the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts are first received by the slots in the terminal cover.
  • the contacts thereafter emerge at the upper surface of the cover within a recess.
  • the electrical conductors are placed on the upper surface of the terminal cover in the longitudinal direction across the recesses.
  • these conductors can be pressed successively and separately, but also simultaneously into the recess between the tines of the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts.
  • This can be executed with separate tooling formed as a flat strip-shaped anvil, which can press the portion of a conductor stretching across the recess into this recess until in the slit between the two tines.
  • the insulation is cut by the sharp edges of the tines and the core is brought into contact with these sharp edges.
  • the pressing action on the conductors can be executed simultaneously for all conductors by means of the cable support.
  • This support consists of a plate having a lower surface resting upon the insulated electrical conductors which in turn rest upon the upper surface of the terminal cover.
  • Conductor pushing means are located in the grooves of the cable support, opposite to a recess in the terminal cover.
  • Said conductor pushing means each consist of a finger or a strip portion stretching in the direction to the terminal cover, the largest width of which extends transversely to the plane of the bifurcated insulation piercing contact located in the recess.
  • the length and position of each strip portion is chosen such, that upon lowering the cable support on the terminal cover each strip portion can be conducted into the slit between the tines of the bifurcated insulation piercing contact.
  • a clamp is used in order to keep the cable support in position. This clamp may be built in, for instance, or form a part of the usual dust cover for the contact device.
  • the contact device of the present invention is particularly suitable for automatically operating assembling means.
  • a conductor has to be repaired or replaced only one conductor needs to be handled.
  • all remaining portions of the contact device can remain in position.
  • the contact between each core and corresponding bifurcated insulation piercing contact is maintained, even when the cable support is removed. Bending each conductor several times. for pushing it into the recess of the cover and between the tines of the insulation piercing contact results in a U-shaped bend in the conductor, which by its position in the terminal cover gives a strain relief.
  • This strain relief can be improved by lowering the cable support, which is clamped on the upper surface of the terminal cover.
  • the lower surface of the cable support and the upper surface of the terminal cover may comprise parallel grooves adjacent to each other for at least partly receiving the electrical conductors.
  • the length also has to be within certain dimensions, particularly if all conductors have to be supplied from one side to the contact device as is customary with flat cable. In the known devices it is customary to introduce the conductors from above or from different opposite sides to the upper surface of the terminal support.
  • the contact device of the present invention which is characterized in having one row of recesses positioned behind one another in the terminal support. Terminals in the terminal support have different distances between the center line of the terminal and the slit between the tines of the bifurcated insulating piercing contact. Terminals having an offset between the slit and their center line are mutually turned with respect to each other 180°.
  • a central terminal In case of three recesses, one behind each other, in one row a central terminal can be used, the slit of which coincides with the center line of this terminal, whereas the outer terminals have slits offset with respect to its center line and are rotated 180° with respect to one another.
  • three conductors can be supplied from one side of the contact device to the upper surface of the terminal cover.
  • Each terminal consists of an upper portion 1, an intermediate portion 2 and a lower portion 3.
  • the terminal may consist of a U-shaped bent electrically conducting sheet. The two parallel sides of this bent sheet are elongated above and below and connected with one another by means of the connection strip 4 in the intermediate portion 2.
  • the elongated upper portions constitute the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts, each consisting of a pair of upstanding tines 5 and 6 respectively, separated from one another by a slit 7.
  • the edges of the tines 5 and 6 defining the slit 7 are sharpened such that upon pressing an insulated conductor from above into the slit 7 the insulation will be cut and the sharp edges of the slit 7 will dig into the core of the electrical conductor. This results in an extremely reliable contact between the core and the terminal.
  • FIGS. 1, 4 and 5 show in the upper portion two parallel bifurcated insulation piercing contacts.
  • one or more bifurcated insulation piercing contacts can be used, however, in the present invention usually two bifurcated insulation piercing'contacts are used.
  • FIGS. 6, 12 and 13 show as an example one bifurcated insulation piercing contact per terminal. In FIG. 1 two insulation piercing contacts per terminal are used.
  • connection strip 4 of the intermediate portion 2 is offset to the right over a predetermined distance with respect to the right-hand edge of the side surfaces, so that a shoulder or support base 8 is obtained. Upon positioning a terminal in the terminal support 10 this shoulder will come to rest on a cam in the recesses 11 of the terminal support 10. At the opposite edge of the intermediate portion 2 a sharp protruding barb 9 is formed, which upon positioning in the recess 11 will dig in the material of the side of the opening, so that the terminal cannot be drawn or fall out of the recess.
  • each terminal comprises two contact terminals 12, 13 approaching each other for connecting a further conductor.
  • These contact terminals as a matter of course need not be embodied as shown and also may form part of the intermediate portion 2.
  • the difference between the terminals of FIGS. 2, 4 and FIGS. 3, 5 respectively is that the bifurcated core piercing contacts in the terminal of FIGS. 2 and 4 are displaced with respect to the center line of the intermediate portion 2.
  • the slit 7 in FIG. 2 is situated to the left with respect to the center line over a distance determined by the pitch between recess 11 in longitudinal direction divided by the number of rows in the transverse direction of the connector.
  • Upon positioning these terminals in the terminal support 10 one pair of each set is turned over 180°, so that the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts are displaced to the left or to the right with respect to the longitudinal direction of each row of recesses 11.
  • the shape of the intermediate portion 2 is so adapted to the shape of the recesses 11, that the terminal fits closely in these recesses.
  • these recesses are shown having rectangular cross sections.
  • the cross section of the intermediate portion 2 will be likewise rectangular. This can be seen in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 6 shows the component portions of a contact device of the present invention in an exploded view.
  • the device consists of the terminal support 10, the terminal cover 14 and the cable support 15.
  • the component portions 10, 14 and 15 are drawn above one another, such that upon lowering each portion will take the necessary mutual position.

  • the terminal support 10 consists of a plastic block having three rows of equi-spaced square or rectangular recesses 11 in this shown embodiment.
  • the pitch between these recesses which means the distance between the center lines of the recesses 11 which are placed behind each other and next to each other is as usual in this kind of contact devices 2.54 mm or 0.100 inch. This measure is mainly standarized and is used in the U.S.A. and in Europe.
  • Between the recesses 11 lands 19 are formed, having equal width, as long as the recesses 11 are of a rectangular cross section. The upper surfaces of these lands function as support for the terminals as shown in FIG. 1, where the shoulders 20 rest upon the upper side of the. lands 19 between the recesses 11.
  • Terminals according to FIGS. 2 and 3 are positioned in the middle row of the shown recesses i.e. of the rows of recesses running parallel to grooves 21 in terminal cover 14.
  • a terminal according to FIG. 3 is introduced, whereas at both sides hereof terminals according to FIG. 2 are introduced,turned 180 0 with respect to each other.
  • the barbs 9 dig in the material of the walls between the recesses, so that the terminals are kept firmly in position.
  • the recesses in FIG. 6 are of square cross section, however, the invention is not restricted to this cross section.
  • the cross section likewise can be circular or elliptical, in which case as a matter of course the intermediate portions 2 of the terminals have to be adapted to this modified cross section, such that the terminals cannot rotate in the recesses about their center lines.
  • terminal cover 14 is shown partly in cross section above the terminal support 10.
  • the cover 1.4 is provided at the upper side with parallel grooves 21 having such cross section that the round outer surface of each conductor is supported over a part of the periphery.
  • Three parallel grooves 21 are positioned within the distance between two recesses 11, seen transversely to the direction of the grooves.
  • a recess 22 emerges into each groove 21.
  • a channel or slot 23 emerges in the lower end of the recess 22.
  • Slot 23 emerges also in the lower surface of the terminal cover 14.
  • the recess 22 is of such depth that the upper parts of the two tines 5 and 6 together with slit 7 inbetween are received in the recess 22, sufficiently high in order to obtain a good contact between core 18 of conductor 16 after pushing down a conductor portion in the recess 22 and between the tines 5 and 6.
  • the recess 22 is of angular shape at the bottom. However, this bottom can also be rounded.
  • the terminals are positioned in a manner shown in the recesses 11 of the terminal support 10.
  • the recesses 11 of the terminal support 10. In FIG. 6 three of the recesses are filled only, but it will be obvious that the invention is not restricted.to this shown example.
  • terminal cover 14 is lowered on the upper surface of the terminal support 10 upon which all bifurcated insulation piercing contacts will slip into the corresponding slots 23.
  • each anvil 25 Upon lowering the cable support 15 on the terminal cover 14 each anvil 25 is conducted into a corresponding recess 22.
  • the front of the anvil 25 forms a rounded hollow cylindrical support surface -26 for the insulting sheeth 17 of conductor 16.
  • each anvil comprises an opening 27, having such width that the two remaining pads at both sides of the opening 27 will take a position at both sides of the slit 7 in the bifurcated insulation piercing contact.
  • the cable support 15 Apart from the U-shaped portion of the conductor located in the recess 22 the cable support 15 together with the anvil 25, if used, gives an additional strain relief for conductors 16.
  • the conductors also may be pressed simultaneously by means of a correspondingly shaped tooling in the recesses 22 and slit 7 of the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts.
  • This particular tooling should be provided with anvils 25 in accordance with the number of recesses in which conductors have to be connected. After applying the conductors this particular tooling can be replaced by cable support 15, from which the anvils 25 can be omitted.
  • the terminal support 10 comprising the terminals, the terminal cover 14 lowered on the terminal support 10 and the cable support 15 with conductor 16 placed inbetween can be covered by a dust cover which also may provide additional pressing force between the three plastic parts 10, 14 and 15.
  • This dust cover may be provided with a clamp.
  • FIG. 7 shows a top view of the terminal cover 14, after introducing the different conductors 16 between the tines of the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts.

  • FIGS. 8, 9 and 10 respectively show cross sections of terminal cover 14 and terminal support 10 having terminals located in the recesses 11 of the terminal support 10, which terminals are provided with the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts.
  • FIG. 8 shows a cross section over the central row in FIG. 7.
  • FIG. 9 shows a cross section over the upper row and FIG. 10 a cross section over the lower row, seen in the surface of the drawing of FIG. 7.
  • FIGS. 8, 9 and 10 clearly show that the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts of the center row coincide with the center line of the terminal whereas the bifurcated insulation piercing contacts of the outer rows in FIGS. 9 and 10 are displaced with respect to the center line.
  • FIGS. 8, 9 and 10 also show how the terminals rest with the shoulders 20 and 8 on the recesses 11 of the terminal support.

  • the cable support 15 need only be lifted, after which the conductor to be repaired can be removed by pulling out of recess 22 and out of the bifurcated insulation piercing contact. Thereafter, a new conductor can be applied and connected, after which the cable support 15 can be lowered on the terminal cover again.
  • FIGS. 11 and 12 are preferred above the embodiment of FIG. 13, because all conductors 16 in the embodiments of FIGS. 11 and 12 can be cut in one cutting operating, in which the cutting surfaces are in line with the side of the contact device. Also upon this cutting operation all conductors 16 are supported, at least in the embodiment of FIG. 11.

  • the core 17 can be solid, but also may be a stranded type.
  • the configuration and dimension of the contact device of the present invention is adapted to a DIN 41612 connector system. However, there is enough design freedom within the scope of the present invention to produce connectors with different dimensional sizes and numbers of positions or recesses in one or more rows.
